Midjourney Website
There are three main sections on the website:

- Image and Style Reference: Use Image/Prompt/Style
3. Archive

Today, let me share with you the way to work with the Alpha Midjourney Website to create and organize images
- Section One: Create
- Section Two: Archive
Section One: Create
1. Image Generation
You can now create images easily on the website with the Imagine textbox located on the top part of the website.
How do you generate an image on the Midjourney Website?
- Step 1: Go to the “ Imagine” textbox
- Step 2: Type in words that describe the image you want to create, you can type a general description or be more specific adding styles and details.
- Step 3: Adjust parameters
- Step 4: Press “Enter” and your images will be generated
The website allows you to adjust the parameters easily including
- Aspect Ratio: Image size
- Mode: Standard/Raw
- Version: Midjourney version
- Stylization: Application of Midjourney’s default aesthetic style.
- Weirdness: Adds unusual aesthetics.
- Variety (Chaos): Unusual and unexpected results.
- Speed: Relax/Fast/Turbo
The images you created will then appear down below.
2. Further Customisation
You also have the option to perform the following actions without needing to upscale an image:
Once you go into the lightbox, you can access more functionalities
- Vary ( Subtle & Strong )
- Upscale (2x/4x/Sutble/Creative)
- Remix (Sutble/ Strong)
- Pan ( Up/Down/Left/Right)
- Inpainting ( Vary Region )
- Rerun or Use: Prompt
- Change AR: For Change aspect ratio
Change AR
If you have read my recent updates on Midjourney, you will know that the “Change AR” allows you to easily change the asepct ratio with the dragging bar on the Midjourney website.
3. Image Prompt & Blend Made Easy
With the Midjourney website, you can prompt easily with images with blend and image prompts.
Blend: The blend command allows you to upload 2–5 images and merge the aesthetics.
With the website now, you can easily upload a photo:
- Step 1. Press the “+” icon
- Step 2. Choose a file or drop a file
Alternatively, you can directly drag and drop images that you created directly to the “ Imagine” textbox.
Click “ Create”
Here is the result of blending two images.
⭐️ Extra: User other’s Images
You can even use others’ images easily for “blend” or as an “image prompt” simply by dragging the image into the textbox like what I show you above.
4. Style & Character References
You can do the same with Midjourney V6 New “Style References” by including a URL or dragging the image.
Step 1: Copy the URL of the Image
Upon generating a new image, right-click to access the URL of the image or Copy the Image URL from the lightbox.
Step 2: Include the URL with the parameter "--sref"
Add the URL after the command --sreflike this below
Extra: Image Prompt with Style References
You can also include an image prompt together with “Style References”.
👉🏻 How to tell if you use an Image Prompt or Style References?
There will be a pin 📌 if the image is used as a “Style References”
Learn more about “Style References” here where I share four advanced tips to fully optimise the feature:
NEW! Three Icons on the image ⭐️
With the release of the new “Character Reference”, you can now work with Style, Character and Image Reference even more conveniently!
After uploading an image, there will now be three icons for you to select when you hover over the image.
- Character Reference(
--cref): Inspired by key character attributes. - Style Reference(
--sref): Inspired by visual style only. - Image Prompt (
URL in prompt): Inspired by composition, style, subject.
Select according to your preference, and you can generate an image together with your text prompt.
Section Two: Archive
1. Batch Download and More
You can now select more than one image at a time and download them in batches or take more actions like “Like, Hide or Add to Folder.”
2. Create a Folder for Organization
The Midjourney website allows for creating folders for categorisation.
- Step 1: Head over to “ Archive”
- Step 2: Select “Organise” from the top right corner
- Step 3: Select “ Folder” and click “Create Folder”
- Step 3: Select “ Smart Folder”
- Step 4: Input the keywords used in your prompt in “Search Terms”, for example “ Isometric”
- Step 5: Give it a Title
- Step 6: Create Folder
3. View and Filter Customization
You can now have more options when filtering images to customize the view
📌 Things to Note
- Somewhat Unstable: features may change suddenly
- Desktop Focus: Mobile works but it has UI/UX issues and bugs. It will improve until the Desktop version matures
- Encouraged to use both Desktop and Discord: Both platforms are important for community, events, support, feedback, private servers
Final Thoughts
The website aims to evolve into a hub for Midjourney fans, with David emphasizing the goal of transforming Midjourney into a community rather than just a tool.
More website upgrade is set to be released this year. Stay tuned!
